<p>OCR is a pain, but scanning to PDF would be a worthwhile venture
IMHO. It's easy enough with a disassembled paper volume. <br>

<p>$50.00 for all that knowledge, totally worth it.<br>

I think the mass of the other information is worth more than
$50. And to be honest, I haven't been able to afford $373 in
one lump either, that's why it's awesome that Bernie is willing
to sell in pieces. I started with the core stuff, added the
rest of issues 1 -12 that weren't in the core, and eventually
will buy the rest of the paper archives (soon, as I implied
earlier, I have projects ongoing now that will easily fund
that).

</div>
<div>But the engineer's handbook on its own would be a good
choice, as it has a complete set of circuits and stands more
or less on its own. And it's about the size of a book I'd pay
$50 for.<br>

</span>It certainly would. A lot. Scanning them all would be
a big job, but OCR'ing them all too would be a major task.<br>
<br>
Until we get robots and AI that can do this sort of stuff
for us, there's a lot of information that's just going to
stay on paper. But I don't believe that point is that far
away.<br>
